Steph + Josh (and their beautiful bub to be!) // @toolshednoojee
Earlier this month I spent the day with these two absolutely beautiful humans, surrounded by their nearest and dearest.
It really was the sweetest celebration — the love between them both (and for their little one on the way) was so evident in every moment.
Afterwards, Steph sent me the most beautiful review and I was honestly welling up reading it…
“I honestly cannot be happier with Kayla`s efforts on our special day. She was so kind, professional and made me and my new husband feel totally at ease taking photos. I normally hate photos of myself being taken and was worried I`d hate the photos no matter what, but when I saw just the sneak peeks, I cried. I have never had anyone capture what I felt was truly me. She nailed the vibe and the day and everything that is special between me and my husband. Kayla, thank you so so much for all your effort and kindness on the day, your communication leading up to the day and everything else you have done for us.”
I’M NOT CRYING, YOU’RE CRYING!!!!
Congrats you two - I can’t wait to hear about bub’s arrival <3

Sam + Rachel at @swallowfieldvineyards - what a day to remember!
From the moment Rachel walked down the stairs, to Sam’s heartfelt tears during his vows, the day was overflowing with love, laughter, and those perfectly messy, joyful moments that make a wedding truly theirs.
The epic dances of the night were unforgettable — a nod to how they met at dance class (even if Sam doesn’t quite remember!) — and the energy from their guests kept the celebration lively from start to finish.
It was so special seeing familiar faces again — Nathaniel + Charlotte and their adorable children — and feeling that beautiful family connection continue to grow.
Their love story is something else: Sam proposed in Bali at sunset, navigating quad bikes, hospital stitches, and perfectly orchestrated surprises just to see Rachel’s smile — the kind you could watch on repeat forever.
A fun, heartfelt, and utterly personal celebration, full of laughter, tears, and everything in between. I feel so lucky to have captured every moment of this beautiful day.

Last weekend at @cptnjacks on the harbour in Sommerville with Teash + James
These two first met at work back in 2017 — a love story that quietly grew through team chats, emails, and the long drives to meetings. What started as everyday workdays slowly turned into something much bigger.
Their engagement almost happened on the Sunshine Coast… until travel restrictions changed the plan. Instead, James proposed on Arthurs Seat, in front of their kids — a moment that ended up being even more meaningful than the original idea.
At the heart of the day was their beautiful blended family, all brought together with their sweet little boy Larkin — the thread tying everyone together and a reminder of just how much love sits at the centre of their story.
Their wedding felt just like them: beautiful, fun, and full of personality. The kind of celebration where laughter sits right alongside the heartfelt moments.
And in true “let’s make this day unforgettable” fashion, they even got matching tattoos from @treehaventattoo during the reception — James’ very first tattoo, permanently marking the day they became husband and wife <3
Yesterday at @alowyngardens in the Yarra Valley, these two officially became husband and wife.
The sweetest couple, with their little sidekicks Harley and Nudge (the very charming border collie) coming dangerously close to stealing the spotlight more than once!
An energetic wedding party kept the whole day buzzing — including the groomsmen’s iconic aisle entrance as the “Beer Boys,” launching beers into the crowd so guests could sip along during the ceremony. Equal parts hilarious and unforgettable.
Fun, sweet, and just the right amount of beautifully chaotic energy, this was a celebration full of personality, big love, and the kind of joy you could feel in every moment ❤️
Awesome team of: @aaronpalmer_celebrant

Ella + Brad’s wedding yesterday was at @theshearingshed, Phillip Island — one of my all-time favourite places to photograph!
A genuinely gorgeous couple, held so closely by their fave people. A wedding party who adored them, heartfelt words that landed deep, proud parents high-fiving each other mid-celebration, and that rare, perfect Summer weather - not too hot, beautiful sunshine and a divine evening.
Fun, vibrant, and full of love from start to finish, before we slipped away to the beach cliffs at sunset. Just Ella and Brad, the sea air, soft light, and a quiet moment together before embarking on the party on the dancefloor when we got back! <3
What a sweet start to the year yesterday was (Yes I took alllll of January off!! Soo good!!) with Juliet + Ryan at @inglewoodestate and my new friend @alanawithlovecelebrant
Clear skies and bright sunshine, hot in the afternoon sun, set the scene for a beautiful celebration with their family and friends, many who had travelled from overseas while @joshsperring_entertainment
entertained them all evening.
It was a day filled with quiet moments, big love, and the kind of joy that settles in and stays ❤️
Congrats guys!! x
Yesterday was an absolute dream in Arawata, South Gippsland.
There’s something pretty special about photographing a wedding in a place that holds so much family history. Piper’s family has deep connections there, and friends and family even travelled down from Queensland to be part of it. The ceremony was held in the same little church where Piper’s parents were married, which made it all the more meaningful.
Both families were so genuinely kind and welcoming, and their sweet dog Sansa did her best to steal the show whenever she could.
The weather was meant to be terrible, but thanks to an old wives’ tale and a couple of sausages buried in the ground, we ended up with only the lightest drizzle and a whole lot of luck. It didn’t affect a thing — everyone enjoyed lawn games, drinks outside the Arawata Hall, and then we were treated to the most incredible sunset. Some lovely neighbours even let us use their paddock for photos, which was such a gift.
Kate from @heyloversxo was the powerhouse behind bringing Piper’s vision to life, and did an incredible job of keeping everything running smoothly.
One of my favourite details was Piper’s dad giving people tractor rides, something the family used to do when the kids and cousins were little. It was such a nostalgic, joyful touch to an already beautiful day.
What a ripper night. The dancefloor was still going strong when I left, and I’m officially convinced that burying sausages might be the ultimate wedding hack!! ❤️

A decade of love, laughter, and adventures across the world, brought these two to the moment of beginning their next chapter in the most intimate and heartfelt way — a micro wedding with just nine of their closest people, surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Broughton Gardens in Jindivick.
With the rolling hills of Gippsland as their backdrop and spring blooms including cherry blossoms all around in the gardens, they said “I do” on the exact day they met, ten years ago. It was quiet, meaningful, and full of the kind of joy that lingers long after the last toast is made.
Sometimes, the smallest gatherings hold the greatest love — and this day was nothing short of magic.
Congrats M+M - here`s to many more decades of sweet happiness ❤️
HOW DO I CHOOSE WHICH PHOTO TO LEAD WITH?!?!
Nath & Bec’s wedding at the beautiful Carlei Estate Winery was one of those days that just fills your heart right up.
It was my first wedding back for the season and the forecast had us all thinking we’d be blown away with rain and crazy winds… but instead we got soft little showers, golden light sneaking through, and the most incredible sunset to wrap up the day. Honestly, we couldn’t have been luckier!
With just 35 of their nearest and dearest, the whole vibe was relaxed, fun, and full of those little moments that remind you what weddings are all about — laughter, happy tears, and so much love.
And of course, I’ve got to shout out Carlei Estate. Nat and her team are absolute gems — they always go above and beyond for their couples (and us suppliers too) and it honestly makes days like this run so beautifully.
Happy first day of marriage, Bec + Nath — here’s to all the adventures still to come!
Incredible dream team:

Some wedding days just feel magical, and Maddi & Ty’s autumn wedding by the Dargo River was exactly that. 🍂
They said their vows in one of their favourite spots, with their amazing celebrant Rachael from @theivyaisle_msra.chael weaving in little touches of Viking tradition that made the ceremony so personal and special.
During the group photo, they surprised everyone with the happiest news… they’re expecting their first baby! The cheers and happy tears were such a beautiful moment.
Later that night at the reception, Ty — aka @DJYeeHawaus — serenaded Maddi with a song he’d written just for her. It was one of those moments that makes your heart full and your eyes watery at the same time.
From vows to surprises to love-filled music, their day was just overflowing with joy. So grateful I got to capture it all.

I`m still smiling after this gorgeous little wedding at @dromanaestateweddings on Saturday — a small gathering of their nearest and dearest, and honestly, it couldn’t have been more perfect.
The Autumn colours in the vines were showing off, the May sunshine was kind, and everything felt warm and full of love 🍂
There’s something so special about smaller weddings — less fuss, more connection, and all the space to just soak it in. The laughter, the tears, the golden light… magic. ✨
Here is a little peek at Alex + Henry`s day - and that beautiful first sunset they got to watch as husband and wife. Here`s to many more amazing sunsets! <3

Golden light pouring over the vines, a gentle breeze carrying laughter across the hills, and the kind of love that makes you believe in forever — that was Christal + Sam`s wedding day at @massaros_yarravalley
Nestled in the heart of the Yarra Valley, Massaros set the perfect stage for a celebration that was both elegant and joyfully down-to-earth. From the beautiful gardens to the rolling vineyard views at sunset, every corner felt like a dream.
These two wanted a relaxed day surrounded by their favourite people, good wine, and even better food — and they absolutely nailed it. Their ceremony was full of heartfelt words and happy tears, followed by a reception that was equal parts laughter, dancing, and fun.
One of my favourite moments? Just after the sun dipped behind the hills, we snuck away into the vines for some golden hour portraits. The way Sam looked at Christal, like he’d already won the lottery, was pure magic.
Weddings like this one are a reminder that it’s not about the fluff — it’s about connection, intention, and choosing to celebrate your love in a way that feels true to you.
Christal + Sam, thank you for letting me be a part of your beautiful day. Massaros, you never disappoint — and neither does that golden valley light. 🍷💫

If Callum`s expression doesn`t say it all... <3
Some moments just hit differently, and this was one of them.
The second Callum saw Jess walking down the aisle, every emotion spilled out—tears in his eyes, the biggest smile, and that look of pure, overwhelming love.
You could see him trying to hold it together, but there was no stopping it. And honestly, why would you?
Weddings are full of beautiful moments, but this? This was so beautiful. I even found my own eyes prickling at his sweet reaction to seeing his wife to be. The kind of reaction that makes you feel just how deep their love runs. A love that’s real, raw, and absolutely unforgettable <3

The kind of wedding dreams are made of… 🐾
Tucked away on a private property in Mt. Egerton, Sam + Dylan celebrated their love in the most relaxed, down-to-earth way—surrounded by family, friends, and of course, their beloved dogs Alice + Diesel. 🐶
From the moment guests arrived, the vibe was pure magic. Hay bales for seating, orcharfd and paddocks stretching for miles, and that unmistakable feeling of relaxed excitement.
When you think of a private property wedding this is exactly what you imagine - Laughter echoing through the trees, paws padding happily around and guests relaxed and enjoying themselves.
As the sun dipped low, we climbed the hill at the back of the property, greeted by a view that took our breath away. An endless rolling landscape bathed in golden light—a perfect, quiet moment for the newlyweds to soak it all in. ✨
These are the weddings that remind you what it’s all about. No fuss, no stress—just love, joy, and the beauty of a life shared.

These two planned a warm, sunny summer wedding… but Mother Nature had other ideas #typicalmelbourne.
Instead of the glorious outdoor sunshine, they got cozy vibes, a crackling fire, and the kind of intimate indoor ceremony that made everything feel straight out of a movie.
Did they let it ruin the day? Absolutely not! And just when we thought we’d be staying indoors all day, the rain gave us little breaks here and there —just enough time to sneak outside and capture some magic. The air was crisp, the light was dreamy, and these two? Absolute naturals!
Proof that the best weddings aren’t about perfect weather—they’re about the perfect people! <3
